- Model creator: [IkariDev and Undi](https://huggingface.co/NeverSleep)
- Original model: [Noromaid 20B v0.1.1](https://huggingface.co/NeverSleep/Noromaid-20b-v0.1.1)
<!-- description start -->
## Description
This repo contains AWQ model files for [IkariDev and Undi's Noromaid 20B v0.1.1](https://huggingface.co/NeverSleep/Noromaid-20b-v0.1.1).
These files were quantised using hardware kindly provided by [Massed Compute](https://massedcompute.com/).
### About AWQ
AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference with equivalent or better quality compared to the most commonly used GPTQ settings.
It is supported by:
- [Text Generation Webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui) - using Loader: AutoAWQ
- [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm) - Llama and Mistral models only
- [Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference)
- [Transformers](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers) version 4.35.0 and later, from any code or client that supports Transformers
- [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) - for use from Python code

<!-- licensing start -->
## Licensing
The creator of the source model has listed its license as `cc-by-nc-4.0`, and this quantization has therefore used that same license.
As this model is based on Llama 2, it is also subject to the Meta Llama 2 license terms, and the license files for that are additionally included. It should therefore be considered as being claimed to be licensed under both licenses. I contacted Hugging Face for clarification on dual licensing but they do not yet have an official position. Should this change, or should Meta provide any feedback on this situation, I will update this section accordingly.
In the meantime, any questions regarding licensing, and in particular how these two licenses might interact, should be directed to the original model repository: [IkariDev and Undi's Noromaid 20B v0.1.1](https://huggingface.co/NeverSleep/Noromaid-20b-v0.1.1).

## Provided files, and AWQ parameters
I currently release 128g GEMM models only. The addition of group_size 32 models, and GEMV kernel models, is being actively considered.
Thanks to the [chirper.ai](https://chirper.ai) team!
Thanks to Clay from [gpus.llm-utils.org](llm-utils)!
I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.
If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.
Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

## Training data used:
- [no_robots dataset](https://huggingface.co/Undi95/Llama2-13B-no_robots-alpaca-lora) let the model have more human behavior, enhances the output.
- [Aesir Private RP dataset] New data from a new and never used before dataset, add fresh data, no LimaRP spam, this is 100% new. Thanks to the [MinvervaAI Team](https://huggingface.co/MinervaAI) and, in particular, [Gryphe](https://huggingface.co/Gryphe) for letting us use it!
